yep, that contact overrides the current mode set in User Mask, according to Chris... -

Getting better at digging with an excavator?
dpmiller replied to Alan Ambrose's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
practice and youtube. There were some great videos from (IIRC) Volvo in the US that helped me understand some of the stuff I'd watched my groundworker pal do so delicately -

Give me your thoughts on window design

The Excise boys are pretty active this side of the Irish Sea- North and South- and it's not unusual to see main roads stopped for fuel checkpoints. Where I get red at the pump for the digger, and for testing heaters and things, there is a constant stream of pretty new snazzy cars filling up at the pump. Often tradies that are working daily on a site some distance from home. Seems the losing the car and being find isn't enough of a dis-incentive? A couple of litres for a digger or dumper aint even on the radar...
